(Reuters) - Rafa Nadal has confirmed he will play this week's Barcelona Open in what will be the Spaniard's first tournament since January.
"I arrived here a bit like in a last minute decision as I didn't know if I was going to be able to play," the 22-time Grand Slam champion told a press conference on Monday.
